    If he is at the game he should be put down. He should not be at another game unless they move on which isn't happening

    I dont know why anyone over 50 years old would want to be a coach, you on the road most of the year when you could be staying at home and enjoying your retirement the best years,

    Nice of you to make that decision for him, not knowing either him or his wife or his family.

    Money, contract agreement, can't stand being around your wife 24/7 retired, maybe enjoys coaching and teaching younger players, etc... many reasons why an older man like Pop keeps working especially when you are making the kind of money POP is.. Set's up kids and everyone else you know making that kind of bank roll. Sitting at home retired can be boring for some also..

    My take anyways..

    I know my brothers wife whom was awesome and I loved like a sister died of breast cancer at 38 years old.. I know family loss and so does my older brother and his kids..

    It sucks.. People die though and it happens.. You grieve hard in the beginning, your world is turned up side down and in time the pain eases up. Then life resumes back to normal eventually and you move on..

    That's life fellas but you do feel that void when a loved one dies... I've had 2 in my life die.. Cried my eyes out on both deaths and I don't cry often either..

    A class act? Ummmmmm no. He's a petulant child when he loses and doesn't realize that part of his millions of dollars are due to tv and having to answer questions to the media. Yet, he uses the media to spread his anti-American, pro-socialist politics. Guy is a huge prick.

    Go fukk yourself. Popovich served this country in the armed forces. Something most of you dumb ass haters of Pops have never done. Who the fuk are you to question his views. They are his views, not yours so go eat a bag of dikks.

    This country was built on the right of it's people to have a viewpoint and not be a damn Lemming without a concise train of thought. Sit your ass down.

    Agreed, I'm not a fan of POP at all or anything he stands for.. Seems stand offish, always has a pissed off look on his face and is typically rude to the NBA media. Dude has tude for sure.. Not a guy I'd like to hang out with...

    Still, when a long time wife dies that sucks.. Family is busted up...

    Popovich is the most respected coach in the NBA. The Spurs are the most respected franchise, which Pops helped lead. Most people don't like winners unless it's their team. San Antonio fans love the man. None of this shit has anything to do with a former vet losing his wife of 40 years. Damn, between people bad mouthing Barbara Bush and now this. Bad timing.
